Target selection using a utility theoretic approach
Ozener, Mehmet Serhat; Yardimci, Yasemin (2001-08-02)
Modern target tracking systems perform different tasks among which are target detection, selection and tracking. in this study, we describe a target selection technique based on Utility Theory. The utility of each target is assumed to be a linear combination of some basis functions that act on certain features of the target such as size, intensity, speed and direction. The unknown parameters of the basis functions and their weights are selected using a descent type optimization technique. Simulation results...
Target detection in hyperspectral images using basic thresholding classifier
TOKSÖZ, Mehmet Altan; Ulusoy, İlkay (2017-05-18)
In this letter, we propose target detector version of recently introduced basic thresholding classifier for hyperspectral images. The proposed technique is a sparsity-based low complexity detector which achieves high detection rates with very low false alarm rates and performs extremely rapidly. We also propose a new decision metric, background model, and spatial smoothing procedure in order to increase the detection probability further. Experiments show that the presented method outperforms the other state...
Target recognition by self-organizing map (SOM) type unsupervised clustering using electromagnetic scattered signals in resonance region
Sayan, Gönül; Sayan, Eren Sila (2010-12-20)
This paper investigates the use of unsupervised learning for electromagnetic target recognition in resonance region. Wigner distribution based target features extracted from late-time target responses at arbitrarily observed aspect angles are used to design a target classifier by using the self-organized map (SOM) algorithm. Effects of having unequal amounts of training data for different library targets are investigated in particular. Small scale aircraft modeled by conducting wires are used as test target...
Target tracking using delayed measurements with implicit constraints
Orguner, Umut (2008-07-03)
In target tracking, standard sensors as radar and EO/IR observe the target with a negligible delay, since the speed of light is much larger than the speed of the target. This contribution studies the case where the ratio of the target and the propagation speed is not negligible, as is the case in sensor networks with microphones, geophones or sonars for instance, where the speed of air, ground waves and water cause a state dependent and stochastic delay of the observations. The proposed approach utilizes a ...
Target selection using neural networks
Ozener, MS; Yardimci, Y (2002-04-04)
Target selection is the task of assigning a value or priority to various targets in a scenario. This priority is usually determined by the threat the target poses on the defender in addition to its vulnerability to possible measures to be taken by the defender. In this study, we describe a target selection technique based on neural networks. The utility or value of each target is assumed to be an unknown function acting on certain features of the target such as size, intensity, speed and direction of moveme...
